That’s the first time I’ve seen “ Waggott “ and “ Lightning “ in the same sentence.

unless it was accompanied by the words "I" "wish" "was" "struck" & "by"?

[dallydally]

On our so called "Budget" and given the Venkys clowns at the top plus Suhail and Maggoty locally he is by far and away the best we could expect. Who knows who will come but it WILL be a significant downgrade!

I don’t think suhail will give a toss tbh, if we can tarnish venkys name again maybe they’ll be like wtf. Wip round and get it in the Indian papers. 

JDT was dissing Waggott for months in his interviews, and there were nil repercussions for him.

As soon as he dissed Suhail he was gone.

The idea of an advert in the Indian press has been looked into before, and I’m sure those who tried it said the media organisations would not entertain it for legal reasons.

Suhail is the nearest thing we have.

When is it due to snow again?

That one snowball had more impact on the owners than any financial loss, protest or media campaign ever seemed to have had.

The way football has gone at top level I can’t see Dyche getting another Premier League job.

No, I don't think he will either, at best he'd be a last ditch effort by a newly promoted club to keep them up but other than that, I think he's done.

The issue is that footballers and football managers tend to believe their own hype and he'll probably wait it out for some time before the realisation sets in that he's going to have to drop into the championship.

There is obviously the other issue that he's a Dingle Legend, so probably would avoid us on that basis alone.

Papers a probably a thing of the past, you would likely be better served paying for an advert on YouTube targeted to those with an Indian IP address

If you genuinely believe that location/family is the main reason that he is leaving. Then why are you annoyed at the owners and board?

You are beyond help Chaddy.

If you are seriously now going to swallow the guff about family reasons or control over transfers rather than face up to the reality of what is going on here then there is nothing more to say. 

He is leaving because he cannot stand to stay at this football club a moment longer than he has to. Just like JDT couldn't. 

I would suggest all 3 of you look at Eustace's interview from SSN link I provided yesterday and he dropped the family thing in there very clearly as one of his reasons for maybe leaving. 

Eustace felt let down in the summer cos he didn't get what was promised to him and same in January. He wanted to make cash permanent signings. 

Eustace has been promised certain things by Derby and how much influence he will have over transfers, etc. 

I hope from today's meeting with Rovers management he get the assurances he wants..

People thinking he’s leaving for ‘family reasons’ is next-level deluded.

Hence Suhail needs to feel the heat , more so than Waggott.

Waggott is a lightning conductor.

How are going to do then to make Suhail feel the heat?

I think the point that the others are making is that the family thing is not his MAIN reason for going to Derby. It's a bonus for him to be closer to family but its clear that Venkys, Waggott, Suhail and the lack of support he's had in strengthening the squad is clearly the reason he would consider leaving a side currently sat in the top 6.

It's obvious.

As were likely closing the book on John Eustace he finishes with a 35.4% win record in the league, but only 0.01 points per game behind Mowbray and JDT.

The table shows in the first part the league record P W D L 

The second column is the cup record P W D L

The third is the combined total with For and Against Added and League points.

*Mowbray record above is Championship only

 

Mowbray 1.36 points per league game

Tomasson 1.36 points per league game

Eustace 1.35 points per league game

You've literally said the real reasons for him wanting out in this post. 

The owners, Waggott, Gestede and Suhail have let him down. 

The family line is just there to keep his nice guy media profile up.

Do you think he'll be turning down the Chelsea job for family reasons if offered?

It’s not his family mate. What he’s doing there is justifying his decision. He’s gone. In his head, he’s gone.

They had to ‘talk him into not resigning’ in the summer after they pulled the rug on his budget. Then they ballsed up the January window with us sitting in 5th and £20m in ffp leeway. The underlying feeling amongst the group (players / coaches / staff) is that it’s completely toxic. The whole club is controlled by Suhail, no one’s had a pay rise, no new contracts, the place is falling to bits.

JE’s whole ethos is on ‘togetherness’. The reason we’re 5th and not 20th isn’t because we’ve got loads of top players it’s because everyone is bought in. He’s getting the max from everyone, but that relies on give and take. The club keep letting that process down!

fwiw - I reckon the Siggy thing was the straw that broke the camels back. It’s clear that JE didn’t think the extra one was coming in and the way we’ve cast Siggy aside is so classless. No one is telling me that wasn’t engineered by Suhail to force Siggy and his considerable wages out into the US market or whatever, after the Jan window closed. The lads wouldn’t have been happy about it, and that weakens JE’s position. For someone with morals, alongside everything else… “Enough is enough”

You posted about the club talking him into no resigning a while ago and I am pretty sure you are right.

if you know about it, then all those who matter at the club, the players, coaches and other key employees, will know about it too.

Given how Suhail is controlling the club and how he seems to be ensuring that the owners spend nothing, it is time to properly out him and I think it has to be the way now, rather than trying to get Waggott to come clean.

I noticed at the player of the year night in April last year, how Suhail was lurking around, keeping his eye on everything and he gets away with blending into the background and has no one to answer to, yet he is pivotal in everything.

It was be more influence on transfers and money to spend

I know but look at my original comments which certain posters ignored it.

During the game on Sunday, the TV cameras panned towards Waggott more than once.  I think it was Suhail was sat next to him the first time, but there was an empty seat next to Waggott from then on.

He doesn't like the spotlight

He hasn't been backed, simple as that. Just as Christ Sutton said on commentary yesterday.

Yes - practically identical returns and from memory Bowyer and Lambert had very similar numbers too.

It’s a 2 hour drive in rush hour from Blackburn to pride park, I’m guessing he’s not living in the ground and probably nearer the Birmingham side. The guy played for Watford and had no issue.

But we are a recurring, never ending failure to them. Rather than continuous shame, why not cut the shame adrift.

I have always thought there is something more sinister to the Venkys ownership of Blackburn Rovers , from Day 1 there was 

speculation in the National Press that the whole takeover was not right .
